Hey 👋🏻

Hey everyone...
My name is Maddie and I am 18. I’ve been questioning my gender for a long time, and as well as this... I’ve been really struggling with my mood for as long as I can remember, and I’ve received counselling before but it hasn’t really helped me at all. I don’t know where to turn, because I feel like I’m constantly stuck.
But now... I’m rambling, so I’m just going to leave this here.
I hope everyone is having a good evening.

    Hey Maddie, welcome.  I hope you find being a part of this community helpful x
    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    Hey Maddie! Love the username. :3

    It sounds like you've got a lot on your mind and I hope this community can help you work through that in some way, even if that's just by listening. Good to see you posting.
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.

    Welcome maddie! Hope we can support you here <
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
